Timothy Hunt (AKA Fickle Fate) is a UK-based artist, graphic designer and illustrator with a penchant for artwork that blends simple, child-like minimalism with a mordant sense of humor to create an aesthetic entirely his own.
Looking through Timothy Hunt's selected portfolio, it's easy to be lured in by his comedic and colorful visual gags, but it's his striking ability to present such strong and simple messages that really shows his talent. Some of the themes he explores are sad or even a little scary, but he manages to do it with the same playful comedic zeal that marks his patently comedic illustrations.
